REAL ECONOMY, R careful About Necewities, but Lux* u.-lous With Luxuries. "What is the nature of the per sonal economy, of a successful busi ness man?" writes Hutchins Hap 00d in Ainslee's. "What is a rich man's attitude toward expenditure? He always wants his moneyfa worth in neces saries, and in .tnem will, often drive o hard IkrgailL That is part 0f his business, ft ?ts into fcis scheme to b? consistent in.the field of his work. Ho is. too much of Jan artist not to round out the! whole system of getting the most for his outlay. But for luxuries he will spend enormously, with no eye to economy. "It is a luxury to him to spend large sums for his wife's dresses, for jewels for her ears, for opera' seats, for his extravagant son's amusement. For Iiis Own few per sonal luxuries?for his cigars,"for his wine?he will pay the highest j prices. As the wise Bacon said, 'A man ought warily to begin charges j which, begun, must continue, but in j matters that return not he may be j more liberal.* lu other words, be careful about necessaries, but when it comes to luxuries be really lux urious. This is the natural instinct of a man really sound in business matters. Such a man is econom ically constructive and devoted to big plans, and he has no leisure or nerves left for small sacrifices. A condition of his continued produc tiveness is that he should satisfy his temperament, should buy his wife all the jewels she wants and allow his son to 'splurge' with the best. "Genius has its vagaries? which must be satisfied unless the pro ductive spirit is to fall away. A live business men contributes enor mously more to the common good than if he didn't spend enough to stimulate his business genius. Spendthrift wives are often a spur to their husbands. The watchword in general Is?the economy of ex travagance." < Neatly Rebuked. Dr. Thomas Hume, an Irish wit .and friend of Thomas Moore, went into a newspaper office and silently placed on the counter the announce ment of a friend's death, together with 5 shillings, the usual charge for the insertion of such advertise ments. The clerk looked at the paper, tossed it to one side and said in a surly manner: "Seven and six." "I have frequently had occasion," replied Hume, "to publish these simple notices, and I havo never be fore been charged more than 5 shil lings." "Simple!" repeated the clerk grumpily, without looking up. "You say he is "universally beloved, and deeply regretted V Seven and sixl" Hume laid the additional money on the counter, saying quietly: "Congratulate yourself, sir, that this is an extra expense to which your executors will.never be put." $ " m : >. *>. i'U' Natural Fountain Pen. Pine needles grow in pairs in the same sheath, and when placed side by side the sharp pointed ends are exactly opposite. Fasten these two needles together by a thread quite near the pointer' nd, and you will have a pen wit? two sharp nibs, ready to write whatever you please. As penholder insert the pen into a hollow twig, letting the points stick out about half an inch. Dip your pen into an inkstand, letting it re main for a short time in the ink. The ink will rise by capillarity in the tube formed by the junction of the two needles and will form a re serve of liquid sufficient for the writing of twenty lines. The pen is fine, simple and won't rust. Tobacco and Progress. Modern civilization would not be what it is if it were not for tobacco, is the opinion of an English scien tist. Modern civilization, he main tains, did not begin until tobacco was introduced into the old world, and he infers that it would not have begnn then if tobacco had not been in? educed. "The golden age of England," he says, "was tho era of tobacco, the giants of literature and politics were inspired by the smoke of to bacco, and one may truthfully say that the empire of Great Britain was founded in the midst of smoke."?New York Herald. Connecticut. Connecticut has three sobriquets. It has been called the "Land of Steady Habits," from the sobriety and gravity of its people; the Free stone State, from its enormous quarries of that description of stone, and tho Nutmeg State, from the tradition prevalent in surrounding communities over a hundred years ago that the chief industry of its inhabitants was the manufacture of nutmegs of wood, to be passed off as genuine on unsuspecting purchas ers.

A correspondent writes to the London Express: "Having recently returned from India, I am struck vrith the white slavery that exists today in the banks of London. .The hours-7-10 to 4?are used as an.inducement to get young men to join certain hanks in London, but in reality the hours are nearer 8.30 a. in. till 9 p. m. What does this mean to a young man living with his parents in the suburbs (for the mere pittance derived from this slavery can only keep him in rail way fares, clothing and the daily midday meal) ? It means that some of them have to leave their homeB as early as 7 a. m. in order to reach their post in time. It also means that it L 10 p. m. or after before they reach home, tired, overworked and with a distracting headache. Woxking, as they do, in a close, badly ventilated and brightly light ed office must be injurious. "In India, if such a thing were done?but native clerks would not stand it?the dreadful cry of slav ery would be heard everywhere, and people of England would spend money and time and make every effort to bring about a remedy. Why is this not done here? We can find banks paying 15 per cent, 18 per cent and even 20 per cent per annum dividends at the expense o? the poor, underpaid white slave, the unfortunate employees slaving for a wage that would surely shame the stockholder if he thought se riously of it. ? asked a bank man ager a day or so ago why banks are so undermanned, and his reply was, To satisfy the stockholders/" * Bean Superstitions. Every lover of rare and curious information knows that most of the ancients were "dead set" against the beans, but no modem unraveler of old time mysteries knows why. It may be truly said that there are but few philosophers of the present day that "know beans." Pythago ras admonished his pupils to "ab stain, from beans," but on ~rh"t grounds no one knows. He was also authority for the old time supersti tion that any sentence written in bean juice could be seen plainly re produced on the disk of the moon. Andrew Lang said that the an cient folklore of beans is a most cu rious and interesting topic, because' it seems wholly out of the question that we should ever understand what it was all about. Demeter was the patroness of all fruits and veg etables, but the ancients considered it impious to attribute to her the discovery of the bean. Heraclides, - on the authority of Orpheus, declar ed that beans buried in manure piles forthwith became human be ings. _ Wakened by a Water Pall. Many are the schemes practiced by watchmen, to enable them to catch a few winks of sleep between rounds. The most ingenious device of all comes: from the fertile b-ain of a man employed in a big JcLen sington milL He balances a wide plank across a trestle and on one end sets a pail of water. A very small hole nas been punctured in the bottom of the pail, which en ables the water to run out eiowly. As soon as he finishes his round he lies down on the other end of the plank and is soon snoring. When the water has trickled out of the pail for twenty minutes, his weight counterbalances that of the pail, and he falls to the ground, wide awake, and in time to start on his rounds again. ? Philadelphia Bee-' ord. _ Tenors Are Not Cheap. While traveling from Toulouse to Bordeaux the other day an inspect or of th? railroad fell fast asleep and was not aroused until the con ductor called out the name of a sta tion. As he did n?t hear the name very distinctly, he summoned the conductor and asked him what sta tion it was. "CastiesarTazin," was the reply; whereupon the inspector said rath er angrily: "Why didn't you call it out more distinctly? No one could understand what you suid." "More distinctly?** repeated the conductor in amazement, and then in a tragical voice he asked, "Do you think that you can hire tenors for 80 francs a month ?** It Had to Come Down. Pat Kane settled at Buffalo, im ported his brother Mike from Cork and on his way home took him to ?ce Niagara. Mike, turning his back on the falls, calmly lit his ,ipe. "I say, Mike, that's Niagara," "I see it." "Well, but look. Isn*t it wonder ful?** "What's wonderful?*' "Why, Mike, the wather comin' down!" "What's to hinner it?" replied the imperturbable Mike. ?

What a monotonous old world this would be wore it not for.the de lusions therein! . '. / " ' . '. V ' . WOMEN'S CLUBS. The First of These Organizations In' This Country Was So rosis. The first woman's club in this country was Sorosis. The inspira tion for action in such form came to Mrs. Jennie C. Croly of New York city. That she was distinctly successful so far as quality goes in carrying out'this inspiration is in stanced by the names of such wom en as Alice Gary, Kate Field, Ph be Cary and Ella Diets Ciymer as offi cer* for the first year. Tho object of Sorosis was to bring together women of all kinds and each to assist tho other in working along her own lines in the way most helpful to herself. Such a platform necessitated much sympathy and patient inquiry before settling down to what might be termed systematic work. This little band of women realized keenly that they had been and still were shut out from much legitimate endeavor, and they de termined to bide their time and work out their own salvation and that of all liko minded sisters. Just when Sorosis was in the em bryonic stage a letter came from Miss Kate Field, telling of the for mation of another club in Boston and objecting to the name of the New York club. She wrote: "The Boston women are also forming a club, but they have got men with them and know better what they want. They will accomplish some thing practical and definite. Don't go on with Sorosis. I won't have the name. Nobody knows what it means, and nobody will know what you mean or what you want, and you will be laughed at/' After a temporary change of name and tribulation generally: So rosis resumed her baptismal name and slowly but surely found out what she wanted and what she meant, and after a longer stretch of time made a steadily increasing and approving public know what she wanted and what she meant. To day hundreds of thousands of wom en rise up and call its founder and faithful coworkers "blessed."?Be becca uougias Lowe in Pilgrim. Horses, Dogs and Drunken Man. "A horse hates a drunken man," Bays an old stableman, "but a dog seems to feel that a drunk isn't re sponsible for himself and acts ac cordingly. A dog, no matter how fierce he is, will never bite a drunk en man. He seems to know by in stihet when a man is under the weather and treats him much as he would treat a child. But with a horse ifs different. A horse treats a drunken man with contempt? doesn't wont to have anything to do with him. "There used to be an old bum who loafed around the car-stables and who somehow or other always managed to keep loaded up to the nozzle. Some nights be woujd creep |ntp a;stall and go to sleep ?i the straw.

Claretie says, ''Breton he remained all his life by character, pride, independence, pro bity, tenacity carried to obstinacy and by superstitioh." Before "Tur caret" was played he had promised the Duchess de Bouillon to read her the piece. It was thought that the reading would take place before dinner*. Some business detained him, and he arrived late. The Duchess de Bouillon receiv ed him with an appearance of im patience and told him with an air of discontent that she had lost an hour waiting for him. "Well, madame," said Lo Sage coldly, "I will make you gain two hours." After this short speech he bowed and went away. A Different Kind of Fire. Chumply (at the reception)?Is this Mrs. Passionpen, the celebrated poetess ? Mrs. Passionpen (haughtily)?It is. Chumply (effusively)?I should bave known you among a thousand. Mrs. Passionpen?Why?

Gold Colors. Many people suppose that all gold is alike when refined, but this is not so. An experienced man can tell at a glance from what part of the world a goldpiece comes and in some cases from what particular gold district the metal has been ob tained. Australian gold, for in stance, is distinctly redder than that from California. The Ural gold is the reddest found anywhere.

It plays J an important part in the production. ? of fog and even of rain, it gives rise to the gorgeous colors of sun set, and it forms a congenial breed ing ground for microbe^ good and bad, and a handy means of dis tributing them. There, h abundant proof that combustible dust, auch aa that found ift?coal mines, is a powerful explosive, more dangerous even than the dreaded firedamp,, ainco* it is capable in 'some circumstances of exploding spontaneously. The reason is that the fine dust com biner .with, the oxygeniot the eir? that is, it burns slowly, and. in the process of combustion gives off neat, which raises the temperature j of the dust. This increase of tem I perature, again, causes oxidation to I proceed more rapidly, until finally I the dust is hot enough to explode on the slightest provocation. The explosion spreads to the dust floating in the air and accumulated in the mine till a destroying dame sweeps from one end of the work ings to the other. Many plans have been proposed \<X obviating this risk. One method which obtained great favor was to keep the atmosphere of the mine damp by sprinklers. It has, how ever, been found that this rather increases the danger since damp dust oxidizes much more readily than dry. Modern science relies chiefly on keeping considerable stretches of the workings free from dust by thorough wetting, so as to limit any explosion which may occur and at the same time keeping the whole mine cool by thorough ventilation. His Position. "Ton have been with that firm a long time," said the old school friend. "Yes," answered the man with the patient expression of counte nance. "Whatfe your position?" "I'm an employee.'* . *But what is your official title V it haven't any official title. If s .like this: When the proprietor wants something done, he tells the cashier, and the cashier tells the bookkeeper, and the bookkeeper tells the assistant bookkeeper, and the assistant bookkeeper tells the chief clerk, and the chief clerk tells me." "And what then?" "Well, I haven't anybody to tell, so I have to go and do it."?Wash ington Star. The 8eepter. The scepter was the emblem of power. As the silver wand, so fa miliar in cathedrals, was once hol low, containing the "virge" or rod with which chastisement was inflict ed upon the choristers and younger members of the foundation, so the 'royal scepter represented the right to inflict punishment. Hence ths expression "to sway the scepter" implied the holding of regal dig nity. The scepter witib toe deve possessed the additional signifies - tion of the Holy Ghost, as control ling the actions of the sovereign.

Oils and Ointments That Were Used by the Romans. < The amount of perfume used in ? the palmy days of Homo was enor- t ^ mous. The wealthy patricians were * most prodigal in this respect. The perfumers were called ung?cntarii, as they principally compounded un guents and must have done an im mense business. In Home they con gregated in a quarter called the Vic us Thuraricus, The most cele brated perfumer in the time of Mar-1 ( tial was a certain individual named I. Coarnus, whom Martial frequently1 mentions. At Capua there was auch a number of perfumers that the principal street of tho city, named j Seplasia, was almost entirely occu j pied by them. For tho most part I these tradesmen were Greeks, and, I us at Athens, their shops (taberna) j were the rendezvous of the rich idlers of those days. The perfumed oils and ointments wcro mado in great variety. Tho basis of the oils was generally tho oil of Ben, and that of the unguents was a bleached and partly purified tallow. They were used not only for tho hair, but to anoint all parts of the body, especially after the bath, which was quite a complicated process. It was also customary at banquets to honor tho guests by Souring costly perfumed oils over aeir feet. Some of these were sim ple oils, such as rhodium, made from roses; melinum,made from quinces; metopium, from bitter almonds; narcissimum, from the narcissus. Perhaps the most fashionable oil after the oleum susinum was that called crocinum, mado from saffron (crocus), which communicated both a line color and odor to the person.
